Oi, piss off. Hellblazer # 300 comes out today in comic shops everywhere and concludes the longest running Vertigo comic and – on a technicality – DC comic. I’ve already said my piece on the subject of John Constantine and DC’s cancelling of his book in favor of a New 52’d version. Since I get …

8. Batman
Batman doodle on a Post-it. I do not like a short-eared Batman. Unless it’s Adam West.
3. Lady Beetle
Over Christmas my former friend asked if she could draw me something as a present. I said yes, she asked me what I would want. Whenever any of my friends asks me what I want them to draw, I say Blue Beetle (Ted Kord). Not being comfortable drawing male characters, she drew a female version. …
1. Wonder Woman
Oh. Hey. What happened? What’s goin’ on? How’re you? So. I realized today that it was exactly two years ago that I had started my initial Sketch-A-Day project.

Batman
Warm-up sketch from yesterday’s Drawing Night. Still working on trying to get a more animated/cartoony feel for my drawings.
Power Girl (34)
So every year on my birthday, I usually post something. Mostly it’s been a sort of “year-in-review” text piece that generally turns into a bit of sad-sackery. This year, I got nothin’. Absolutely nothing. Plus I haven’t posted any new art in over a month. I’m actually still working on that last piece. So I …
